Wow! The Crafty Wave Website is now available! Check it out at http://www.craftywave.com/! I'll post more Crafty Wave information next week, so stay tuned! Here's a fun video from Donna's Summer Retreat where she started to describe the Crafty Wave while some of the team leaders put on some entertainment! Enjoy!




Here is a picture of the Crafty Wave Creative Team Leaders who were at the painting retreat:

Retreat Table Photos

Here are the table pictures from Donna's painting retreat in July. I took these pictures the last day of the retreat. Unfortunately some painters had already left. There is no logic to assigning table numbers - it was just a way for me to tie people's names to the pictures! All names listed below the picture are left-to-right, not taking "rows" into account.

It was a wonderful week full of creativity and making new friends. I had such a great time!

All surfaces and paints are included for each event. Bring your brushes, water basin, and double loader. Loaner supplies will be available upon request. I will send registered students more detail closer to the event. You do NOT neet to be a certified instructor to attend!

I've had the honor of taking two certifications from Donna, stayed at her house for one of them, and went to her recent retreat in Florida. You just have to meet her for yourself, she is a wonderful, sweet, down to earth lady! The classes will be small, less than twenty-five people, so everyone will get a chance to spend time with Donna! Small class size also means less seats, so don't put off signing up if you want to go! The Thursday night class is almost full already! Take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!

Welcome!

Hi! Welcome to my blog! I am new at this, so things will be very basic at first. Initially I will use this site to communicate my class and event schedule but it will expand to cover Crafty Wave products and promotions.

Thanks for stopping by!

Sincerely,
Danelle
